My favorite band Bad Religion released a Christmas album last year.

My favorite band Bad Religion released a Christmas album last year. They're punk covers, but they're sung unironically, they're not shitty. This review nails why BR released such an album, as well as how I feel, as an ardent atheist whose favorite holiday is Christmas and who loves this time of year. No matter which celebration of peace on Earth and goodwill towards men & women you practice, take care of each other, and don't be such a fucking cynic all the time. Merry Christmas. 💞🌍🎅🎄

My fireplace + boxed wine + Batman Returns = a pretty kick-ass way to spend one of my favorite nights of the year.

Made a new lifelong friend today, and she is a fucking doll.

The only thing that makes me more happy than that perfect little face is seeing how happy it makes my best friends, her parents!

This time tomorrow I'll be drinking/cooking for Friendsgiving (at my house this year) with Alex Mendenhall​ & kathy tengono​, who are coming into town. Then my favorite part of the year not-related to baseball kicks off, the Christmas season! I know, it makes me a bad atheist, but I completely buy into the holidays, goodwill towards men & women, peace on earth, parties with family & friends, celebrating generosity & kindness and all that. What can I say, I'm remarkably sentimental. And it's all capped off by my best pal Stephanie Neiheisel​ visiting SLC for Christmas. Holy fuck I may explode.

"It's been awhile

"It's been awhile
But somewhere in each day I recall
That crooked smile.
Lost a few years to calculate
All the ways I could've changed your fate."
— Lagwagon, "One More Song"

Nov. 4th sucks even on years where conservatives don't take control of Congress. Although I miss my best friend every day of the year.

Thank you for sacrificing your life to make me the person I am today, a better person, Tyler.

Was today really #NationalCatDay?

Was today really #NationalCatDay? Like, for real, that's a thing? Well, I don't really love cats, but I seem to exclusively love girls who love cats, so let's hear it for cats! Way to go, cats! They're the cat's pajamas!

Awesome day spent at LACMA—got to see my favorite Lichtenstein; my favorite Picasso neoclassical piece (no photos allowed of that one); one of my favorite pieces of art of all time, Magritte's 'The Treachery of Images'; and some sweet modern art installations.

Today, I could tell you about how I saw a bum take a shit on La Brea, then took a piss myself on Hollywood, then saw Tyler the Creator on Fairfax, but I'd rather just let this picture kinda sum up the whole day.

Even when the news headlines are unrelentingly shitty—Islamic State fanning the flames of Sunni/Shia discord; Israel's West Bank land grab (which may effectively kill a 2-state solution); ongoing unrest in Ferguson, MO; my beloved Oakland A's watching their division title dreams completely evaporate—there will always be a few rad ones to remind me that there are actually still some pretty awesome things happening in our world. I CAN'T WAIT to hear Glenn Danzig's rendition of "Can't Help Falling in Love", one of my favorite songs, & anyone w/ even a cursory interest in science should read or watch all of Feynman's legendary lectures.

Remember when Alex Mendenhall turned the big 3-0 in Vegas?

Remember when Alex Mendenhall turned the big 3-0 in Vegas? Me neither, that whole weekend's a blur! But here's pictures proving it happened & that Geoff Hayes, kathy tengono & I were there. I'm so effing stoked to visit my best friend in L.A. w/ my other best friend next month I can't even stand it. #tbt (Or #fbf depending on which coast you're on.)

There has to be an easier way for John Mayer to make a list of the women he's going to have sex with in the next year than having the VMAs.

Hey smokers! You know you're not supposed to be eating those cigarettes, right? Your breath smells like a shower fart.
